Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

Account Information

If you create an account, we collect your email address and a hashed password (managed by Supabase). We do not store passwords in plain text.

Location Data

When you use WhatNext, you may provide a city name, ZIP code, or allow browser geolocation. Location is used only to generate plan recommendations and is not stored on our servers beyond the active session.

Usage Data

If you consent to analytics, we use Google Analytics to collect anonymized usage data such as pages visited, features used, and general location derived from IP address. We do not collect precise geolocation through analytics.

Saved Plans

If you save a plan, the plan details (such as venue names and addresses) are stored in your account. No personal preferences beyond what you explicitly save are retained.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

  • Generate personalized activity and date plan recommendations
  • Store and retrieve your saved plans when you have an account
  • Improve the application using anonymized usage patterns (with your consent)

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.

We only share data with the following service providers to operate WhatNext:
